I have radiators - 5 of them in the living area and a radio thermostat. Now I can specify in the app who is the "boss" and regulates the temperature - in this case, of course, the radio thermostat. It measures the temperature at a convenient place in the room and controls the 5 actuators on the radiators so that the temperature is maintained at the radio thermostat.
Hi,
the Auto-Assist subscription only activates the automatic geo-fencing, without that you'll simply be asked if you want to activate geo-fencing once you leave your home-zone.
Best regards

The tado° Smart Radiator Thermostat is mainly controlled via an app. There is no remote control that has been specially developed for these thermostats. The heating is controlled and monitored via the tado° app on the smartphone, as well as through integration with smart home systems such as Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Google Assistant.
With the Starter Kit there is the possibility to operate and set all thermostats with the App in the mobile phone. But it also works without a digital display on the thermostat that indicates the temperature.
Hello, via the app you will be notified when you should change the batteries, this is the case after approx. 1-1.5 years, depending on the battery quality.
Yes, they will work without thermostat and central heating system. The valve is able to keep the selected temperature if the radiator delievers enough power. The valve just regulats the incoming water flow.
The thermostat for the radiator has a diameter of 50mm and a length of 75mm.
What I don't understand is how a radiator thermostat can be mounted in the wall?
There is no ado trap. All functions are also available without a subscription. Only the automated function must be activated via subscription. Otherwise, the system reliably asks whether you want to regulate the heating according to the detected situation.
You need the starter kit which includes a small box that connects to the router and one thermostatic head per radiator.
The subscription is not obligatory, it costs 3.00 per month and allows an automation of the regulation of the radiators (absence, open window...)
If you don't take the subscription you will get a notification on your smartphone that will suggest you to lower the temperature in your absence.
Even though the launch was in 2016, that doesn't mean it's an "old" or bad product? On the contrary, it shows that it works, does exactly what it is supposed to do and therefore does not need to be changed.
It is mandatory to use the Tado Bridge. But as with Philips Hue, several bridges can be used (in a larger house).
The Tado Bridge registered in the cloud determines the range of functions (V3 vs. V3+).
